Only by being there could one really feel the fantastic atmosphere and experience what the New South Africa really means." The excitement could be felt throughout the city with thousands of fans making their way to the ground all dressed up in crazy hats carrying flags of all sizes (only the New South African flag of course!). There were stands on street corners "painting" the new flag on people's faces, and, of course, folks gathered around their traditional "Braaivleis" drinking and smiling. Inside the ground the 70,000 crowd were wildly excited as they greeted the two teams who took to the field. To hear 70,000 people shouting "Nelson, Nelson" as that great man entered what was formerly the bastion and stronghold of white South African supremacy, is a moment never to be forgotten.

  • News of Terrorism and the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict (May 30 – June 5, 2018)
    רמה כ ז מל ו תשר מה ו ד י ע י ן ה ש ל מ ( למ מ" ) News of Terrorism and the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict (May 30 – June 5, 2018) Overview This past week events focused on two rounds of rocket fire attacking Israel, during which more than 150 rockets and mortar shells were fired, a quantity unprecedented since Operation Protective Edge. The first round was initiated by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) in retaliation for the death of three of its operatives, and was joined by Hamas. The second round was apparently carried out by a Fatah faction, in ITIC assessment while Hamas turned a blind eye. At the same time, the violent "popular" activities continue, including damage to the security fence, attempts to penetrate Israeli territory and destroy equipment. Incendiary kites continue causing extensive damage to crops in the western Negev and to local forests and nature reserves. The Israeli prime minister announced he would instruct Israel's National Security Council to deduct the cost of the damages to the farmers from the tax money collected by Israel and paid to the Palestinian Authority (PA). This past week a kite was flown into Israel carrying an IED. It fell near the fence in the Kerem Shalom area. The IED did not explode. The Naksa Day events on June 5 did not attract many participants and there were no exceptional events, with the exception of the continuing flying of incendiary kites. The kites caused nine simultaneous fires in the communities near the Gaza Strip (Ynet, June 5, 2018).
